The Timberwolves now sit at 13-4, the current #1 seed in the Western Conference, almost 1/4 through the season.

Rudy Gobert defensive rating: 102.3 (#1 in the league)

KAT defensive rating: 104 (#2 in the league this year / averaged 109 historically)

Timberwolves: 106.6 (#1 in the league)

If they make the finals this year; are we still saying it was an overpay?

On a losing team maybe you don't make the right pass for the situation bc the guy your passing to sucks and you don't trust him. On a winning team/culture maybe you always make the right pass even if the shooter is slumping because you trust the process. Similarly on a bad team you feel like you need to force things to compensate and on good teams you don't.
